Whether you admit
it or not, Filipino citizens chose to work overseas than to work here in the
Philippines because of the poor system that the Philippines have. With that,
Filipinos will prefer to study about the culture and tradition of other
country. Aside from that, Filipino are not well appreciated due to the
influence of social media.
Although many
Pilipinos tends to work overseas, we can't deny the fact that we Pilipinos need
our own language. Even our heroes sacrificed their lives just to fight for our
country. On Article XIV section 6 and 7 of the 1987 Constitution which stated
that "the national language of the Philippines is Filipino" so it
means that we should enrich our own language even on the higher level. Filipino
is our national language, it's part of our country and if they will remove it
in college, we will get overcomes by other cultures. We are not a Pilipino
without our language.
It's our nature to
speak the Filipino language because we are Pilipinos. We don't need to remove
the Filipino subject, we still need to know more about our language. We can still
learn other foreign language while we're learning our own national language.
